Publisher Description
Anna Buchanan is a freshman college student with one plan: travel abroad.
Except . . . college life isn't what it's cracked up to be. Her new roommate definitely has a quirky side. All those romantic comedies she watched growing up? Not happening. Money is harder to come by than she thought, and her first kiss is less-than-foot-popping.
Not to mention the fact that there aren't enough hours in her day to sell blood plasma, work at the deli, and volunteer at her dream internship.
All of Anna's hard-thought dreams tumble around her ankles when she buries herself too deep in dreams. Then the most terrifying news hits her like a slap in the face.
Can Anna salvage the time and money needed to fulfill her dreams? Or will she have to face the truth: that sometimes our greatest adventures never take us very far away.
Join Anna Buchanan in Finding Anna, a heartwarming novel about odd roommates, unattainable college boys, and the epic quest to find yourself.

Great Read!!
Finding Anna Review
This book is an amazing story that just pulls at your heart. You follow Anna as she navigates into her independence as a new college student. She has hopes and dreams way beyond anything her parents could ever imagine. Her parents are quiet, practical people who seem to just go through the motions of life, but Anna wants so much more: she wants to see the world and experience everything, she wants to break away from her parents boring lives (and the boring life they plan for her). When illness strikes her mother Anna begins to realize how much her life and her parents mean to her. Add in a new crush, an interesting roommate and a new job, Anna struggles with fitting it all in. She decides to put off her dreams to hold onto her parents for a little longer. This book made me feel so much, as I too have a mother with serious health issues. It made me think about how much I need my mom and how hard it would be to lose her.
Katie really knows how to bring her characters to life and make you care for them as though they are family. She always leaves me wanting more and more!!
